Sitting with product and client stakeholders to understand the real problem, then helping shape it into something concrete that can actually be built.
Owning features end to end, from early scoping and design through to building, testing and getting them live.
Using AI coding agents to move fast, while staying firmly in control of the quality, structure and long-term health of the code.
Building and integrating LLMs into features, refining the prompts, evaluations and guardrails that make AI-assisted features behave reliably in production.
Working against a defined data model and a clear contract, and flagging early when something doesn’t add up rather than building the wrong thing quickly.
Feeding what you learn back to the product and client teams, so each iteration is sharper than the last.
